Aloma and I returned to the Lake Norman area a few days ago for a service celebrating the life of Marion Fearn.
Aloma met Marion Fearn soon after we moved to
North Carolina over 20 years ago at a Newcomers Club meeting. They became
friends and stayed in touch over the years.
I went with Aloma to a Newcomers dinner and met
Brian, Marion’s husband. We and another man, Andy, discovered we played
golf and decided to play together. We were working at the time, so we
played on Saturday mornings every three weeks.
We had a great time.
A few years before we moved to Cary, Brian, Andy
and I, with our wives, went to Cashiers, North Carolina for a weekend, staying
at the High Hampton Resort. Aloma and Marion had us laughing all the
time. The ladies shopped and drove to
Highlands while we played golf. My
brother had a summer house in Cashiers and joined us for a round of golf.
Eventually, we all retired and others joined us
for golf twice a week. This became the golf group that became so
important to me over the years.
Marion Fearn was a beautiful and classy
lady. We will miss her.
Seasoned Man
